Can Birth Order be a Predictor of Presidential Elections?








We have just come through a very contentious Presidential
Campaign. For months the pundits and prognosticators and
pollsters were predicting the outcome. Of course, many got
it right and many got it wrong.  Many said no standing
President has won re-election with unemployment over 8%.
If they had used Birth Order as their guide they would have
picked the winner in the last seven Presidential Elections. Each
of these winners had the higher birth order than their opponent.

Communication
There is no doubt that in the last 28years communication of the
candidates ideas through television has been the major 
source of information to the general public.  Many would 
say it is the issues that help the public pick a candidate but 
I would say it’s the candidates ability to communicate with 
his audience. The higher birth order has that ability to make 
their points more believable.

Birth Order Power
There is a hierarchy in the pyramid of power with birth orders.
The oldest or Firstborn usually has the most power over the
younger siblings. The order is 1,2,3,4 and then it starts over
again with number 5 as a lower level number 1.

Double Birth Orders
Double birth orders occur when there are four of more years
separating a child from all others in the family.  This adds the
Only birth order to their ordinal number of birth and increases
their power.

One Only Double Birth Orders
The One/Only double birth order would be represented by a
firstborn that did not have another sibling for at least 4 years. 
This is President Obama as he is separated by five years from
his younger sister. All firstborns start life as Only children so
there is little confusion as to who they are when that have a
double birth order it just adds power and confidence.

Other Types of Double Birth Orders
When you add the Only birth order to a number 2, 3 or 4
birth order you can get the demonstration of two different
people. The reason is that adding the power of an Only
birth order allows the person to switch back and forth
between birth orders. This can be confusing to the public.
Frequently you may hear people say oh “he is much different
in private” and that is true as these people have two
personalities. It can be difficult for them to express a
consistent image and many may think they are not clear on
the issues. Governor Romney has a Four/Only birth order
which has the most extreme difference between the two
birth orders,  The Only child is self confident and appears the
adult while the four is the baby in the family looking to others
for advice.

Presidential Birth Order History
              Winner                         Loser
2012  Barack Obama     1/0   Mitt Romney 4/0
2008  Barack Obama     1/0   John McCain   2
2004  George  W. Bush 1/0   Al Gore 2/0
1996  Bill Clinton            1/0   Bob Dole 2
1992  Bill Clinton            1/0   George H W Bush 2

Elections with Candidates with the Same Birth Orders
This situation is where a few missteps or small events can 
swing the voters in either direction.
               Winner                           Loser
1988  George HW Bush   2    Michael Dukakis  2
                  53.4%                         45.7%
                   Both had older brothers

1964  John Kennedy      2       Richard Nixon     2
                 49.7%                           49.5%
      Both had older brothers that died in their 20’s

1860  Abraham Lincoln 2      Stephen Douglas  2
                 39.8%                            29.5%
          Both had older sisters. There were four candidates
          in this election. Slavery was the issue of the day.

Exceptions to the Birth Order Rule
Charisma can be the explanation for the exception to the birth
order rule. This characteristic is rarely seen in Presidential 
candidates but occasionally it happens. This is
such a strong factor it can overrule birth order.  Ronald
Reagan was said to have this quality. He was a Second
born with an older brother and won the election over
Jimmy Carter a Firstborn.

Birth Order the Predictor
This information should be considered as another factor in
The election process.  No tool can be 100% correct but if
history is a lesson than both parties must add this to their
tools in the selection process if they want to win.

Les Miles and Nick Saban Coaches with Different Birth Orders

  
Les Miles
                                                           
                                                                    Nick Saban


Les Miles coach of the LSU Tigers and Nick Saban coach of 
the Alabama Crimson Tide just met on the football field. 
Saban’s team came away with the win in the last possession 
of the game erasing LSU’s lead and the hope for a win in their 
home stadium only to lose 21-17.Both coaches are proven 
winners but their birth orders show them to approach their 
jobs with different personalities.


Unmasking Personalities
Understanding Birth Order can unmask the personalities of
people and understand how they see themselves and relate
to others. Each birth order has both positive and negative
qualities which are influenced by ones interaction with family
members, especially with their siblings.

Les Miles a Firstborn
Les Miles is a Firstborn with a sister 3 years younger than
himself. As a Firstborn he would look to the role of the
dominant parent and in his case it was his father. Hope
“Bubba” Miles was a big man of 300 lbs who loved to laugh
and eat. He supported his firstborn son in everything he did.
Hope had been in the Navy and was a gregarious Irishman.
He gave Les a good self image and the confidence to 
succeed. Les did not have to work to keep the throne and 
his position in the family. Being the oldest and a son to a 
father that loved sports secured the top spot for Les. He 
would be relaxed in this position as he had no fear that his 
younger sister would dethrone him. Les was a natural leader 
and played both football, baseball and was on the wrestling 
team in high school. In college he was an offensive lineman 
for the University of Michigan. He replaced Nick Saban as 
head coach at LSU in 2005.

Personality Traits
The first born is the natural CEO, they like to be in
charge. If they don’t feel threatened they can project
a relaxed atmosphere but the work ethic is strong and if
comfortably in their position they can make hard work
look easy.  Les likes to tell a lot of jokes and laughter is
a frequent sound coming from his office. As hard workers
most firstborns are harder on themselves than others. For
Les his late father is always never far from his thoughts.
He has said, “I was a guy raised to please my Dad”.
Firstborns also have a bit of an ego and like the limelight. 
He is described as the media’s darling and has done two
commercials for ESPN. He even has a following on Twitter
with 64,000 followers the most of any coach using social
media. On occasion he even “tastes” the grass from the
football field much to the delight of his fans. Secure within
himself he takes risk’s. Fake punts and onside kicks are just
a few of his elaborate plays that have earned him the name,
“Mad Hatter”. On his more personal side he is a family man
with four children who he does not neglect and takes his role
as a parent very seriously.   


Nick Saban a Second Born
Nick Saban is a Second born with sister Dianna just one
year older.  His sister called him “Brother” as his father
had the same first name. People in his coal mining town
still call him “Brother”. His father, Nick Sr. was the owner
and operator of Saban’s Service, a gas station but his passion
was football. He helped start the Pop Warner football program
in the 1960’s which still survives today. In high school Nick 
played both quarterback and defensive back but was also a
guard on the basketball team and shortstop on the baseball
team. He went to Kent State on a football scholarship playing
cornerback and safety. He has had numerous coaching 
positions and was the Head coach for LSU in 2004 when 
they won the National Title at the Sugar Bowl. He then went 
on to the Miami Dolphins and the NFL.


Personality Traits
As the Second born Nick would instinctively try to “dethrone”
his older sister, Dianna. At one time he tried to compete with
her and play the accordion. His mother made him stop all
athletics and practice, he soon changed his mind.  As a boy
it would have been easy to demote his sister as his father was
very involved in sports. Another trait of Second borns is that
they don’t like to be told what to do. Usually they strive to
earn enough money so others cannot control them. As the
Coach of the Alabama Tide Nick has a 32 million dollar
8 year contract, a record for any college coach. Coming
back to college football from the NFL may also have
something to do with the control of his players. He has said
he wanted to come back to college because that is where
he can make a difference in the lives of young people. That
may be true but they also don’t have multimillion dollar salaries.
He is known as a no nonsense coach that is driven to win,  
another common trait of the Second born.  Nick has been 
known to work all night looking at the same game film. Many 
reporters at news conferences see him as angry but Nick says 
he is just intense. Another trait of this birth order is that 
Two’s can be very secretive. While with the Dolphins he 
forbade his assistant coaches from speaking to the media. 
His assistant coaches say he is very demanding and he works 
his people hard. He is slow to laugh as he takes everything 
very seriously. As a perfectionist everything is focused on 
winning and success, anything that gets in the way is an 
obstacle. Some have labeled him a control freak and dictator 
but, just look at his results. As a Second born he feels 
everything that happens under him is a reflection on him and 
that he is responsible.

LSU vs. Alabama
Here we have the classic match up of two coaches one a 
Firstborn and the other a Second born that has moved up 
into the Firstborn position. Their football backgrounds 
show Les Miles to be more of an offensive man and Nick 
Saban would lean toward defense. Nick will show less 
emotion and keep control of both himself and his team. 
He will be the less flashy. Les will be the risk taker but 
Nick will show that never give up number Two birth order 
as slow and steady wins the race.  What will next year 
bring when these teams meet again?

Jennifer Aniston & Justin Theroux a Birth Order Match?

                                                              Jennifer and Justin

                    Birth Order Matches
                 For those of you that have been following my blogs or
                    have my book; Life’s Fingerprint: How Birth Order
                    Affects Your Path Throughout Life; you know how to
                    find your birth order match. Here is a short review for
                    those who are new to this topic. One of the principles
                    in finding your “love at first sight” is to match up with
                    someone of the opposite gender with your same birth
                    order. A better match is to find someone that matches
                    both the gender and birth order of a sibling in your
                    family.  This is the ideal match that lasts forever!

                    Perfect Matches for the Only Child
                 For this person finding another Only child is possible.
                    Unique to the Only child, who has no siblings, is the
                    affect of their parents birth orders. The Only child
                    merges the birth orders of both parents into their own
                    for a unique new Only flavor. For those that have
                    Double birth orders that carry the Only child
                    characteristics this blending of the parent’s birth orders
                    is critical to understanding this person.

                    Jennifer’s Birth Order
                    Jennifer has a Double Birth Order.  This means that she
                    has four of more years between herself and any other
                    sibling in her family.  In her case she is was born in
                    1969, 10 years younger then her half-brother John
                    Melick born in 1959. This gives her an Only/Two
                    Double Birth order.  She was nurtured at home like
                    an Only child so she acquires “Adult Like” traits.
                    She also gets some traits of a Second born which
                     gives her a sense of privacy and the need to earn
                     money so no one tells her what to do. She is reported
                     to be worth 110 million dollars in 2007 and was rated
                     as one of the top 10 richest women in entertainment.
                     With 10 years separation between Jennifer and her
                     older half brother she becomes 95% Only and 5%
                      a Second born.  Her father has a Three/Only Double
                      Birth order and her mother is a Third born. This gives
                      the Only part of Jennifer’s Double Birth order a lot of
                      Third born flavor and a natural attraction to a Third
                      born.


                      Jennifer’s and Brad Pitt’s Attraction
                  We have established that Jennifer is a Only/Two
                      Double birth order.  As the first born of her gender
                      in the family she also has a Firstborn flavor that
                      could be the attraction to another Firstborn, in her
                      case husband Brad Pitt. Having been raised by a single
                       parent since the age of 9 when her parents divorced,
                       she picks up a little of her mothers birth order,
                       that of a number Three. The Three is laughing on the
                       outside but crying on the inside. This was the same
                       birth order of Brad’s sister Julie, a number Three who
                       was also the first of her gender in the family.  Jennifer
                       said her relationship with Brad Pitt was very
                       complicated. Looking at their birth orders tells us he
                       had no idea what she was all about. He thought he
                       was getting a Third born like his sister but it was just
                       the outer wrapping. What he really got was and Only/Two
                       who he didn’t understand. Jennifer having an older
                       brother gave her a better understanding of Brad but
                       not enough to make this a lasting match.

                    Justin Theroux and Jennifer
                   Justin is a writer and actor who met Jennifer
                      while filming the comedy Wanderlust in 2010.
                       He has written Iron Man 2, Tropic Thunder, and
                       Rock of Ages. He has acted in Zoolander, Island
                       Emprie, American Psycho and Sex and the City.
                       Justin was born in 1971 two years younger than
                       Jennifer.  In birth order theory age is meaningless,
                       it is the birth order match that matters.  He is a
                       number Three birth order being 3 years younger
                       than his older brother with a sister in between.
                       This gives Jennifer the easy connection as both
                       her parents were Third borns. Bingo, a match for
                       Jennifer and someone she can understand.  For
                       Justin another match as he has a number Two
                       older sister who is no where near as powerful as
                       Jennifer.

                        Will This Marriage Last?
                    I have pointed out the reason for each of them to
                         be attracted to each other. It is not a perfect
                         match but a better one for her than Brad. Jennifer
                         will have the power in this relationship for the
                         strength of her birth order is a hard one to top.
                         If she sees her Dad and Mom in Justin than this
                         should work……

                          Update 
                          Justin and Jennifer did marry but it only lasted
                          two and a half years. The strength of her Double
                          birth order is a hard one to match.  Good luck
                         with you next pick Jennifer.

                         For more information on Perfect Matches go to
                         my website www.mybirthorder.com and get
                         a copy of the book.  For those that purchase it
                         from the website I will do a personal analysis
                         for you and help you find that “Perfect Partner”.

Honey Boo Boo: Her Double Birth Order




 


The latest in reality shows is Here Comes Honey Boo Boo.
Alana Thompson got her start on TLC’s Toddlers & Tiaras
as a pageant contestant. Her personality caught the eye of
the Network who signed her for 10 episodes.

Birth Order
For those readers unfamiliar with birth order a few words
of explanation are in order. Birth order is your rank in the
family by order of your birth. Every child in a family displays
a certain group of personality characteristics depending on
their place in the family. This occurs because of the interaction
between siblings, each is different. The only exception is the
Only child who has no siblings so he is influenced by the birth
order of his parents. Double birth orders occur when the 
spacing between individual or groups of siblings is four 
years or more. You can find more information in my book; 
Life’s Fingerprint:How Birth Order Affects Your Path 
Throughout Life by Dr. Robert V.V. Hurst.

Honey’s Birth Order
Honey is the fourth child in her family. Anna is 17, Jessica
15, Lauryn 12 and Honey is 6. Since there is a six year
space between Lauryn and Honey this gives her a Four/Only
Double birth order.  She is the fourth born but has been given
the nurturing of an Only child since she has been at home with
her mother as her older siblings were at school. This is a 
powerful combination as the two birth orders are at the 
opposite ends of the birth order scale.

Fourth Borns
The fourth born child is the true baby in the family.  The older
children take care of the baby so life is easy with others taking
care of you.  Being the baby you have to speak up to get
attention so they are loud in order to talk over their older 
siblings. As a Four, the adult world does not look intimidating 
as they have been interacting with much older siblings all their 
lives. They can be very social and mix well with children and 
adults. Life is fun if you don’t have to grow up.

Only Birth Order
This child has no siblings so most interactions are with adults.
This is their peer group and their parents treat them as adults
and they talk like adults. Most precocious children are Only’s or
a combination of their birth order and the Only characteristics.
Shirley Temple, a child star of the past, was a combination of a
Three and an Only birth order. She had the childlike qualities
of a Three but spoke her lines like an adult.  This was a very
captivating combination.  These unique qualities did not allow
her to advance her career into adulthood.  The magic was gone.
  
Four/Only Birth Order
This is Honey Boo Boo.  When you add the Only 
characteristics to the Four you get a very loud, in- your- face 
child.  You amplify intensity and magnify all the Fourth born 
traits with the addition of the Only birth order.  At six years 
difference from her older sister, Honey is a child that is 60% 
an Only and 40% a Four. She shows the child characteristics 
on steroids and you can see the power of her personality in 
the program.  A little person speaking adult lines is very 
comical to the public. Over time Honey will get older and 
just like Shirley Temple these characteristics won’t elicit the 
same response.  Look for the ratings to drop as Honey Boo 
Boo becomes Honey Doo Doo.

If you think you have a little Honey Boo Boo at home; a child
with a Double Birth Order. Send me a comment with your family
information and I will give you the answer. Go to our website at

Obama Biden Romney and Ryan: Double Birth Orders




The Candidates Birth Order Affect
The race for President is now on with all the
participants selected. You may not know this
but in each of the Presidential elections after
Ronald Reagan defeated Jimmy Carter the
candidate with the higher birth order has always
won the election. Looking at each of the
candidate’s birth orders will allow you to unmask
their personalities and see their different
characteristics. It is also interesting that the
Presidential candidates choose Vice Presidential
running mates that closely match their own birth
orders.  

Double Birth Orders
A person will have a Double birth order when
they are separated from all other siblings by
four or more school years. When this happens
they add the Only birth order characteristics to
their number of birth. The larger the age interval
the greater the Only characteristics. This gives
them extra power as the Only child is the adult
in the room with lots of confidence growing up
in an adult world with his peers being adults not
children. Three of the four candidates have Double
birth orders. Looking at each candidate will give
you a new vision of who they really are.

Barack Hussein Obama Jr.
Born in 1961 he is six years older than his half
sister Maya Soetoro. At age 10 he left the family
to continue his education in Hawaii but shortly
thereafter he was joined by his mother and sister.
Because of the six year difference he will
demonstrate a Double birth order that is 60% an
Only child and 40% a number One.  These two
birth orders are very close as an Only child does
not become a Firstborn until another child is
added to the family. This birth order is very
confident with their own decisions and very
rarely will seek out advice from others. He is
a Super One, a high achiever and as a Firstborn
does not want to admit he is wrong. His closest
advisor is Valerie Jarrett, an Only birth order.
She has a superior birth order and is someone
he would go to for advice. One/Only’s have a
great deal of confidence and because they have
a younger sibling they can be more generational
in their appeal to the masses. Don’t look for any
change in direction from him.

Joe Biden
Obama’s presumed VP pick is the Firstborn of
four children. He, like Barack Obama did not feel
threatened by his younger sister. She has been at
his side through all the crises in his life and has
been the leader in all his campaigns.True to a
firstborn he is a high achiever, while growing up
he conquered a stuttering problem. Always the
leader of the “pack,” he demonstrated the firstborn
need to lead at an early age. His birth order makes
him want to be right at all times and not make
mistakes.  He has been known to make a gaff or two
but tries to cover it up with a little humor.  Expect the
same in this election.  As a Single birth order he does
not have the comfort level of the Double birth order
that carries the Only characteristics.  He will see
himself as the enforcer of the administrations policy
and be very direct in his approach. 

Willard Mitt Romney
Mitt is the fourth child in his family with the first two
girls and the third a brother, Scott six years older. This
gives Mitt the Double birth order of a Four/Only. It
is this birth order that is the most difficult to balance
because these two birth orders are the farthest apart.
A person with a Double birth order will move back
and forth between them showing two different
personalities. At a six year separation from his older
brother he is 60% an Only child and 40% a number
four. The Only side is the hard worker, adult and no
nonsense person willing and able to take on
responsibility. The Four personality is the baby in the
family that looks to others for help and wants work
to be fun.  This could be why Mitt is accused of
changing his mind. He is open to the ideas of others.
This is a characteristic not found in many politicians
as most are firstborns with little tolerance for the
opinion of others. There is no doubt that Mitt was
influenced by his father the former Governor of
Michigan who was a true number four birth order. 
When a number four realizes that life is hard and
you need to work, they really get it. Mitt seems a bit
stiff because all we have been seeing is his adult Only
side. When we see his Four side we will see his
playful characteristics. It is this Four side that allows
him to listen to his advisors, take their suggestions
and work with others.


Paul Ryan
Paul, like Mitt is the fourth born in his family. 
He has two older brothers and one older sister. 
There is a five year gap in age between his third
sibling and himself. This gives him the same
Double birth order as Mitt, both  Four/Only’s.
This is why he was the only real choice for VP
as he matched Mitt’s birth order. I stated in my
April 13th blog he was the logical pick for running
mate. Mate is the word, as this matching of birth
orders is a “love at first sight” paring.  The
difference is that Paul is closer to a 50% Only
and 50% Four split.  He seems to show more of
the playfulness of the Fourth born as life should
be fun not work. This is why bow hunting, fishing
and his family are a big part of his spare time.  The
fourth born is one to speak without using double
talk. Like a child they say exactly what is on their
mind. This is a very different from the usual
political speech.  The four is not afraid of elders
as they had practice with older brothers and
sisters. The Only gives them more power to be
outspoken.Others notice because they speak
with respect and have a kid like approach. He
like Mitt has been able to juggle these two birth
orders. In Paul’s case, the death of his father at
age 16 impressed upon him that life was going
to be hard work. That is exactly how he has lived
his life.

Predictions
Here we have a campaign with three candidates
With Double birth orders.  This seems to give the
edge to Obama and Biden as they have the higher
birth orders. Romney and Ryan both have Only
characteristics but this part of their birth orders is
muted by the addition of the fourth birth order. 
Not that they are  not up for the fight, but they will
be respectful and appear non-confrontational.  They
should be better able to relate to the public by
speaking clearly about the issues and not getting
too emotional. Having almost identical birth orders
is a plus for they will energize each other and speak
with one voice. Barack and Joe will be more like
your oldest sibling and try to tell us what would be
best for us. Because of the complexity of the
electoral process it is difficult to pick the winner
of the electoral votes.  There is no question that
Mitt and Paul will take the majority of the popular
vote but will it be in the key states? This election
will be a nail biter come November.

The Baldwin Brothers and Sisters Their Birth Orders

                            Stephen      Billy      Alec       Daniel
                           Jane William Elizabeth Carol Daniel Stephen Alec

                     A Family of Six
                     It is not often that in a family four siblings
                     are in the entertainment business. Of the six
                     Baldwin children the four boys are actors but
                     their two sisters took a more traditional course.
                     Birth order is a tool to unmask personalities
                     and we will use it here to look at each member
                     of this family.

                     Elizabeth Baldwin Keachler #1
                     Born in 1955 she is the eldest of the children.
                     She carries the firstborn birth order.  With so
                     many brothers she would have a hard time
                     keeping her position and may have been
                     dethroned by brother Alec, the second born.
                     She must be a very nurturing firstborn having
                     six children of her own. She is married to a
                     landscaper but finds time to head Stephen
                     Baldwin’s Fan Club. He was the sixth born
                     and older sister is acting like a mother being
                     11yrs older. She probably played this role
                     while they were growing up.

                     Alec Baldwin #2
                     Alec could be the poster boy for a type of
                     number two birth order. Born in 1958 three
                     years younger than his older sister. True to
                     a second born he does not like to be told
                     what to do. His confrontations with reporters
                     is widely known. Outspoken about his liberal
                     political beliefs he does not back down, a trait
                     typical of second borns. He has had many
                     roles but comedy fits this birth order as it
                     makes fun of traditional roles in life. His
                     Capital One commercials and his role on 30
                     Rock showcase his humor. In marriage his
                     ideal match would be someone that has his
                     same birth order of that of his sisters. Sister
                     Elizabeth is a number one and Jane is a number
                      Five.  Five is a second level number One as
                      birth order starts over again after number
                      Four. His first wife Kim Basinger was a
                      Number Three birth order and the first girl in
                      her family. She would have understood Alec
                      as she has a number two brother. Alec would
                      find her difficult to understand since he did
                      not have a number three sister. His new wife,
                      Hilaria Thomas has an unknown birth order. 
                      Let’s hope she is a firstborn with a younger
                      brother. That would be Alec’s perfect match.

                       Daniel Baldwin #3
                       Daniel was born in 1960 two years younger than
                       Alec.  True to the Third-born, acting would come
                       naturally as he really understands people. Many
                       times third-borns get addicted to drugs or alcohol
                       as they are open and willing to try new things.
                       Unfortunately, they are easy prey to addiction.
                       Such is the case with Daniel who fits the
                       Third-born description of laughing on the outside
                        but crying on the inside. His personal life shows
                        the free sprit of the number three. He has four
                        children each with a different mother. Winning
                        the battle with addiction would stabilize his life.

                         William (Billy) Baldwin #4
                         Billy was born in 1963 Three years younger 
                         than older brother Daniel. The fourth child 
                         is the true baby in the family. In high school 
                         and college he was a varsity wrestler. Sports 
                         and games and having fun is what the 
                         number 4 is all about. Before becoming an 
                         actor, Billy worked as a male model for 
                         Calvin Klein. His brother Daniel says “all 
                         the girls liked Billy." Maybe this was 
                         the signal he put out that said “Help Me, I’m 
                         the baby." Brother Alec said that Billy was the 
                         peacemaker when everyone was “going at it 
                         pretty bad”.  Billy refers to himself as the “white 
                         sheep” in the family. He has been married only 
                         once to Chynna Phillips and they have three 
                         children. Chynna’s birth order is a mystery as 
                         she is one of eleven siblings of her father.  
                         Being part of a large family should be second 
                         nature for her, she would fit right in with the 
                         Baldwins.

                          Jane Sasso Baldwin #5
                          Born in 1965 she is two years younger than 
                          Billy. A number 5 starts the birth order 
                          sequence all over again. She is a second level 
                          #1.  This means the characteristics of a 
                          number 1 are softened with the number 5. 
                          She like her sister took a more conventional
                          path in life.  She is a physical therapist and 
                          her husband runs a car dealership.

                          Stephen Baldwin #6
                          Born in 1966 just one year younger than older 
                          sister Jane. As a number 6, he is in the 
                          second group of birth Orders. A #6 is a 
                          second level  #2. Similar to Alec but without 
                          the edge and more subtle.  All children 
                          want to be different. Stephen is a 
                          Republican, completely opposite from Alec  
                          who has campaigned for Democratic  
                          candidates. He is also a born again Christian  
                          something that happened right after 9/11. 
                          He attributes this to helping him kick the  
                          drug habit but being a second level number 
                          two and wanting to be in control of his own 
                          life certainly helped. As the youngest in 
                          the family he has said that their family was 
                          more like The Brady Bunch, but on crack.

                          End The Confusion
                          An interesting family there is not doubt. We 
                          can get a different perspective of the 
                          Baldwins by looking at their birth orders. 
                          When all four brothers are in the same 
                          profession, it is easy to confuse them. By 
                          understanding their birth orders you have a 
                          way to unmask their personalities. You can 
                          now recognized their differences.
